Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
A poor fit for anyone. And that includes even the undiscriminating gorehounds looking for yet another bloody slice of payback.

rotten:
There's a hint of Shakespeare's goriest tragedies here, sucked dry of any attendant heart, emotional depth or compelling human interest.
– Jessica Reaves,

rotten:
In the end, the picture's more pulp than juice.

fresh:
In a swift 86 minutes, director Meadows and co-writer/star Considine give us a methodical, handsome, emotionally intelligent version of the revenge flick.

rotten:
Film plays as a quirky Brit riff on everything from U.S. slasher pics to revenge oaters but without Meadows' usual psychological complexity.
